A Home That Knows My Hair: Learning Wash Day, Together
Part of the Brave and Belonging Series
H. Montinique
New room. New bed. New foster mom named Ms. Kate. And one very confusing thing called wash day. Ms. Kate has never washed, detangled, or twisted hair like Ava's, but she is determined to try. What follows is a morning of too much water, a runaway cat, and a conditioner cloud nobody saw coming. Somewhere in the middle of the mess, Ava teaches, Ms. Kate learns, and a new house starts to feel like home. A warm, funny, rhyming picture book for ages 5 to 8 about coily hair, foster care, and the kind of love that shows up willing to learn. Part of the Brave and Belonging Series.
